!Introduction
During your etght weeks of Healing Inner Child Group participation, you will giveyour mind the assignment of paying attention to what your needy inner child says,thtnks and how it behaves. You will learn to observe it with detachment and com-passion, realtzing that you can transform and heal it with the help of your HigherSelf.
You will learn to journal each day as you listen to your needy inner child. You willhave a weekly focus card and guided meditation CD to help you bring your innerchild issues to your Higher Self for transformation.
Using this combination with commitm€nt and consistency leads to deep inner heal-ing. You will find that, with the support of the group, you can free yoursell from theItmttatlons ofyour needy inner child's beliefs and fears.
There are many helpful activities focused on healing your needy inner child. Theresult of participating in these activities in a nurturing group is like the transforma-tion which occurs when a caterpillar becomes a beautiful. liberated butterfly. Youwill recognize together that you can fly. that you can release your limiting beliels andfears and apply unconditional Lov€ to everl,'thing you experience.
